    If nobody takes out his knees and he stays healthy, then what we saw Sunday might be getting served up for the rest of the season. Who am I talking about? Yes, you all know who........

    Snow was a light dusting wont really affect game. Cold and windy though.

    Some Pats fans I know are worried about the Broncos pass rush, namely Von Miller and Ware. The main man for me though is Pot Roast. He wrecked our interior O line last January and sowed the seeds of our defeat in that game. Edge pressure is one thing, but no QB will live with a guy tearing through the middle and landing right in his face. So if our O line can't stop him tonight, I'll probably just change channels. The O line has really improved recently, but tonight will tell us by how much.

    Agreed Corvus. The OL is likely to make or break our night.
    I think that TB will stick with Broncos for the night if he's given the protection.
    Will our D do enough to keep us in the game?

    Broncos have really stepped it up this year.
    I think they look better than last year; record breaking stats don't mean much when you get blown out in the SB.

    But we're also better.
    As long as Gronk is Gronk, TB will do the rest.

    Wish I could be in Foxboro tonight; not many of these Brady/Manning games left ;(

    We really need to get the run game going also. Of course we just had to be facing the best run defense in the league :(. But I would love to see Jonas Grey build on his very good start last week and just run over them. And if the Gronkanator can pick up where he left off last week, I can't see anyone stopping him. First and foremost, protect the GOAT.

    If we don't get pressure Manning will find his groove and carve us open. Brandon Fooking Browner needs to stop being so physical. When is he going to cop on and realise the rules have changed.

    Blatant hold on Pat Chung too missed. Bit of consistency here refs, would that be too much to ask?

    With Jones out we have no pass rush. And even when he's playing, it's pretty inconsistent. I don't think any team fears our pass rush.

    Thing is though it doesn't excuse Browners actions. PI is going to get called a lot quicker and more often than holds. Holding calls were inconsistent before they said they were going to call it more. The consistency is neve going to change in that regard.

    Sorry, I meant the hold was on the TD play, not Browner's PI play which I'm not disputing.

    I knew what you were saying I am just saying holding calls will always remain inconsistent blatant or not.

    Demaryius Thomas is really p***ing me off. He has no trouble holding Revis at the bottom of his double move, but any time he doesn't catch it he's signalling for a flag.

    Tom is working the pocket the best I've seen him work it this season, even though the Broncos are getting some pressure.

    Impressed with how phenominal Brady's footwork in the pocket has been also. I know he has always had solid footwork and pocket presence but is it me or does he seem like he has improved it recently if that is even possible

    Our defense has really stepped it up. Slowly starting to gain momentum and get pressure on Manning. Ayers did an amazing job with that stunt to sack Manning.

    A score here would setup the 2nd half nicely

    Far from over; but that's been a great first half by the Pats in defence, offence and special teams.

    Absolutely agree. I've seen far too much freakish stuff down the years, to start thinking this game is done.
